[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Athakuri700:
Is there any setting or xposed or tweak so that i could connect far distance wifi.. not so far too, but somethinh abit more..since I get full range of wifi at my balcony but whenever I go inside room the wifi strength never comes. Hence I should only stay at balcony for wifi :(
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3mel:
is it your neighbours Wi-Fi lol ?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
The wifi range is limited by the hardware, both in the phone and the router.

Try pointing the wifi antenna in the direction of your room or put some tinfoil in a semicircle around the rounter. This acts like a satellite dish, concentrating the signal towards one point. Make sure that point is your room.

Of course, this will reduce the signal strenth in other areas.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Athakuri700:
Yes :p
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Athakuri700:
Tq for idea.. But I can't do bcoz it's my neighbour WiFi :) :p

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sizzlechest:
I have a 1st generation XBox that only has an Ethernet port. Is there a way to connect it to the Fire TV to get it access to my network through WiFi?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rp201:
When Ethernet port is plugged in it disables wifi connectivity. after that a bunch more work making wifi the default gateway with routing... if it is possible. . prolly worth your time to just spend the $30 on an adapter for it or install dd-wrt on an old router you have laying around. . I had a similar request where I wanted to know if my firetv can double as a coffee maker but no-one has solved where to put the k-cup. ;)
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harlekinrains:
Its not so much the device in this case that is unfit for the purpose (well - unless it is, as described above.. ;) ) - it is, that the minds that are interested in and forming around solving those problems are working on much better (reputation) and wider known projects - AND the devices they support cost anywhere from 10-30 bucks used already. So dont tell them why you bought a Fire TV instead.

I know that current "technophiles" see the world as app based solutions that will come to them if they ask around often enough - but really, we already are at the minimal knowledge and minimal cost stage - and they are in essence complaining about convenience.

I have a problem - and see the solution in this one ethernet port another device I bought already has. Let the internet work out the rest, I am waiting for my app - its already rooted, how hard could it be.

And thats not how this works.

First of - why should they be working on an app based solution? A functionality layer if you will - if they dont have control over the entire ecosystem and networking, I heard has something to do with security. Sometimes. And with devices that have to work longterm - quite unlike the little plastic box that currently sits under your TV. And that today is rooted but tomorrow might not be - because, well its not yours to decide. Entirely.

dd-wrt and openwrt are what you are looking for - but that was already mentioned by the person posting before me.

I'm just here to explain why the "asking for a service" mindset ultimately breaks, when it comes to open source movements. Especially when your demands get more and more specific. ("I have bought a...")

;)

I can say all this, because I currently use ddwrt to service some of my needs and it works perfectly well, creating all kinds of synergies I actually actively use - many of which actually are real enablers for owners of Android based Kodi boxes.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harlekinrains:
Well - then again, it might actually work already... ;) (Turn off WLAN in the gui, then enable it via the shell (maybe that way both can be set active at the same time) and start configuring iptables).

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=444004

But understand that this would be very much a hack. So usability, interfaces, security concerns are not on the forefront of peoples minds. ;) Also - have fun configuring ports that way (ftp mostly I suppose.. ;) ) - if you dont want everything to be open.

Google and 2 minutes - btw.

When you read through the thread you start to recognize - that what you are actually looking for is implementation and support (Hence dd-wrt or openwrt). Also - it becomes very clear why this probably never will become an app (needs root, needs to install a new library (think of stuff only busybox does as a core function on android - this has to be vetted not to cause unexpected problems), still only circumvents Androids core functions (either ethernet OR wlan), isnt fully featured, and most of all - most technically inclined people who actually need the functionality simply buy into the dd-wrt or openwrt ecosystem and its all there already).

So to break it down to a few sentences - if you get a person willing to establish a very specific function for his/her own purpose against prior design on an open source OS, you are golden. But, you wont get them by randomly asking around for help on an internet forum. And dont expect to get entire featuresets or usability options alongside it. If you want those - and you do - go with the communities that are known for solving those problems and buy into the devices/ecosystems they use. 10-30 USD should be well worth it.

But if you are in a hacking state of mind - go for it and make those devices work like you want them to. :)
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serpentxx:
Hey guys,

Got a Nexus Player running Android 6.0.1 Build MMB29M i am trying to root

i grabbed the SkipSoft toolkit and installed the koush universal ADB driver,

Fastboot worked fine and i unlocked the bootloader, but ADB just wont find the nexus player

USB Debugging is on*

after trying universal ADB, PDAnet, Official Google USB driver, lots of resetting in between and uninstalling etc etc, one of them finally worked, not sure which one but im afraid to touch anything to find out -_-

[LG G Flex 2] darkthugs:
hello i need to enter my ls996 to download mode,but when i try it it will show some secure boot error 1006

i remmeber that happened with my g3 and after taking the ota ,i was able to enter the download mode

so i believe one update zip could work,or if someone has any other idea let me know

thanks in advice.
[LG G Flex 2] pelelademadera:
secure boot is in normal boot, not in download mode.

you can enter pressing vol down and pluging the usb cable with phone off,

so if you cant turn off the phone, you can power off it with power+vol down, and when it turns off, you must do it fast, relase power button and plug micro usb keeping vol down pressed.

I saved my flex 2 with security error in that way
[LG G Flex 2] darkthugs:
When i try to enter the download mode on my flex 2 pressing the volume down button ,but when showing the icon of download mode ,at the upper left corner it shows the security boot error 1006.it shows it about 5 seconds snd then the phone will boot up normally.

I have a rooted OC3 which I unrooted with supersu. On boot it still says "custom" with the lock image and OTA updating doesn't work. How can I get back to pure stock and update to OK2? If I could download the rom I could just flash it but from what I can tell it's only available OTA. I'd like to give this to my wife as a completely stock, updated, unrooted, factory reset phone.

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] aegeas:
After all this time and trying to get GPS working on smaller handhelds, my Athena just pulled it off wonderfully. I was trying to find an office in the middle of nowhere and used it to great impact. It was so great to be able to sit it on the dash and see the large screen from the drivers seat. Plus the magnetic base kept the Athena stuck in place on the dash of my Volvo S60. It stuck tight to the top of the dash and I could go around curves without it sliding around or needing an extra PDA mount. I swear this phone gets better every day. Now if I could just find a tiny serial port converter that would let me work on a router from it if I had to. Most of the ones out there require extra adaptor cables that I don't want to have to carry around. I want a microusb to serial plug. Now that would be tight.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Madhadder:
Get a normal USB/Serial converter and whack off the USB end and wire-up your own Mini-USB connector. I'm sure There are also Adapters.
[LG G Flex 2] Josue_181:
Hello everyone!

Less than one month ago I bought a lg g flex 2 in amazon of united states and the truth I was very happy with my flex 2. The model exact is the H950 of AT&T. Previously I had a lg g pro and I note that the display of Flex 2 was much lower quality than the lg pro g but I understood by the type of technology lg g flex 2 (P-OLED vs IPS of the lg g pro). But I got used to the screen of lg g flex 2 in some days. Now the surprise is that since yesterday the touch screen of my lg g flex 2 stop working in the upper right corner as you can see in the add pictures and I dont understand why because not work, I dont root and was supposed to be 100% new (not refurbished). I know everyone will say that I sent for warranty amazon but I live in Quito (Ecuador) and I find it very difficult to send the flex 2 to warranty of USA. It is possible to fix it myself without complications? Thank you very much for your answers and sorry for my bad English.

Regards.

[MeMO Pad 7 General] NahuelMS:
My tablet not only freeze and restart, not only work like a tablet with 256mb ram, it also was unusable due to battery draining. 7%/hour in idle.

To fix this issue, everytime you power on the tablet, go to applications, in ejecution, and stop all Asus process and services possible, it only should survive one process that is not stopable. Have to do this everytime you power on the tablet but it stop battery drain. It may work in others models too.

If you are root you can use an app to do it automatically or try uninstalling the asus stuff

did it flashed successfully

Go to /system/app and look for com.sonyericsson.textinput.apk. if u find it there, it means it's not compatible. If you not find it there , it means it didn't flash on your device. In that case manually copy the apk to /system/app and lib to system/ lib and give permission 0644 to both and reboot your phone.

Hope this works for you.

Try removing the Jay app and see if it works.

[Blu Vivo XL] quyvinh:
First I want to thanks emowing for his finding the brother of this Blu Vivo XL, it is Gionee Elife S Plus.

Whole thing: https://blog.hovatek.com/how-to-root-gionee-elife-s-plus/

Step1: Install Vcom Driver manually. This intend to use for the SP Flash tool to work.

https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-440.html

Step2: Run SP Flash tool to install CWM recovery.

*** When read from scatter file, choose RECOVERY ONLY.

https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-159.html

Step3: please do backup to excard (sdcard1) before install superSU.zip

Step4: root, by installing superSU using CWM.

*** Xposed:

Download the latest version of Xposed for sdk22 and arm64 from here.

As of this writing it is xposed-v80-sdk22-arm64.zip.

Also download XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk and xposed-uninstaller-20150831-arm64.zip (just in case).

Reboot into CWM or TWRP and do a full backup

Install framework xposed-v80-sdk22-arm64.zip and then reboot

Cross your fingers and hopefully your phone will start properly. Initial boot would take longer than normal, plus rebooted like five times during the "Android is starting" (orange color on white background) step but finally finished.

Once your phone boots up install app XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk

Now you are ready for your favorite modules.
[Blu Vivo XL] OldManJax:
I gave Xposed a try yesterday so that I could use Amplify. I started getting reboots when I started setting up Amplify. Did basically everything you said in this post. I think it had something to do with the 3.0 installer. Not sure though.
[Blu Vivo XL] quyvinh:
1. Make sure you have correct file of framework install in recovery.

2. Restart into android, then install xposed app

3. install amplify module.

Mine is running well. Tested and work with: Lucky Patcher, Greenify w/experiment.

However, not working: GravityBox.

*** Not all module is working for Android 5.1 ***
